This study aimed to investigate the predictive value of Tpeak-to-Tend (TpTe) and TpTe/QT ratio in patients with anterior STEMI on admission for the occurrence of in-hospital life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias and arrhythmic death.
Methods: This observational cross-sectional research was performed on patients with anterior STEMI who showed up within 12 hours of the beginning of symptoms and received the initial percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI).
Viral infections, including those caused by COVID-19, can produce striking morphologic changes in peripheral blood. Distinguishing between reactive changes and abnormal morphology of monocytes remains particularly difficult, with low consensus rates reported amongst hematopathologists. Here, we report a patient who developed transient monocytosis of 11.
